Funding for charity jobs ''could help youngsters into work''-Charity job News
20 May 2010
Unemployed young people in Scotland could be helped into work after a number of charity jobs were boosted by funding.
KibbleWorks Plus and Barnardo's Works in Renfewshire have secured nearly £400,000 to help train those aged between 16 and 25, the Paisley Daily Express reported.
"Last year, after a successful training programme, 40 young adults from across Renfrewshire were successful in finding jobs and we are delighted to be able to continue this work," said Elizabeth McShane, assistant director for development at Barnardo's Works.
The scheme at KibbleWorks aims to reduce the number of men relying on long-term benefits by providing on the job training and work experience.
In particular, employment in industries like joinery, gardening, catering, mechanics and warehousing is encouraged, the publication continued.
Moreover, people with learning difficulties or leaving long-term care could also benefit from some £30 million European funding which has been awarded to organisations across Scotland.
